Plum forward and masculine, this one makes an entrance from the very first spray. On my skin the dry down settles close to that opening and simply smooths out. It does need patience though. Three weeks minimum to mature, so once you get it give it a couple of sprays and shelf it for a few weeks.
Scent Profile
It's a masculine fragrance, with lavender, sage, palo santo, black pepper and sandalwood in the frame. It's best suited for cooler weather and evenings, and it makes a good date night fragrance. Sillage and longevity are both above average and I use 3 to 4 sprays. It has a similar DNA to Initio Paragon and is a good alternative if you like that vibe.
Bottle & Atomizer
The bottle design is laughable but the bottle stays home hidden away while the juice does the socializing.
Final Thoughts
The juice on the inside is wonderful. The bottle is the one drawback. This scent can be a bit dividing so it isn't the safest blind buy, but at this price point it isn't much of a risk.
This is the scent that dresses up for date night, even if it shows up in a bottle that looks like it lost a bet.
